In case you’re among the few people who don’t have the recipe for ever-popular, easy-to-make seven layer bars, here it is. You can make these bars gluten-free by substituting ground-up sorghum crackers for the graham cracker crumbs. Instructions are also included for making the bars dairy-free.
With this post I hope to inspire you to make your own salad dressings. Homemade dressings are flavorful and fresh and can add variety and interest to greens so they won’t be just a healthy obligation but something you’ll look forward to.

Date nut bread is a classic. This recipe won me over a few years ago with its rustic, slightly crusty […]
These brownies are chocolaty and have a nice, nutty texture. To make brownies extra special—from this recipe or a mix—cut into heart shaped bites with a cookie cutter, dip in melted white or cherry chips, and add sprinkles.
This spaghetti with roasted squash is fragrant with roasted garlic, nutmeg, and browned butter.
This creamy roots soup a wonderful dish that I’ve made from time to time over the years. Every time I make it I tell myself I need to make it more often. I’ve provided some ingredient options and you can adjust it to your own taste, but make sure to include the parsnip. Parsnip is the magic ingredient that makes this soup slightly pungent and very delightful.
To add interest to a light, healthy lunch or supper, serve with a slightly sweet bread like these lemon poppy-seed muffins.
These almond flour and honey drop biscuits are light and pleasing, and gluten-free. They might even win out over conventional flour biscuits. They’d be great and an added protein boost alongside a hearty, healthy main-dish soup.

Here’s a light and healthy recipe that might help you stay on track with your New Year’s weight loss resolutions. This green pea soup is a fresher version of classic pea soup. Thank you, fellow food blogger Kari Romo for coming up with this great, budget-friendly idea!
Here is a hearty apple cider-venison stew recipe. A hunter friend who tasted it told me that people who think they don’t like venison should try this recipe. If you don’t have deer meat, elk is similar to venison, or use beef stew meat.
